Specifically, maybe we could simply use the same language used in the APNIC
transfer policy (http://www.apnic.net/policy/transfer-policy), which is
currently being used for inter-RIR transfers between ARIN and APNIC:

3.3 Conditions on recipient of the transfer
The recipient entity will be subject to current APNIC policies.

Recipients that do not already hold IPv4 resource must demonstrate a
detailed plan for the use of the transferred resource within 24 months.

Recipients that already hold IPv4 resources must:
Demonstrate a detailed plan for the use of the transferred resource within
24 months,
Show past usage rate, and
Provide evidence of compliance with APNIC policies with respect to past
delegations.
